I Broke Off My Engagement With My Childhood Friend, the Hero

13 – Outcomes

In this world or the other world, people always clash with their values.

Every time that happens, if you can’t back down, there will eventually be a dispute.

The best method in these disputes is a duel.

Actually, dueling is a violent act, and I don’t really deny it.

However, in the end, the logic of power must follow for problems that cannot be solved with words.

It’s not a matter of ending with words anyway, and this is also the reason why duels are sacred in their own way in this world where strength is important.

Duel…

Actually, I haven’t heard this word that many times in my life.

Because there was no risk of a clash of values like that, and no one dared to challenge me to a duel.

And in the first place, these words are mainly used by academy students and knights.

To be honest, I didn’t know that I would hear the word duel after graduating like this, even if I didn’t know when I was in the academy.

And even if I listened to it, I just thought it would be tiring.

But now it’s different. A duel might be quite fun.

From noble mtl dot com.

“I’m Lulu, the referee. Then. Let’s start a duel with Dogram and E9. The rules are just rough.”

Me, E9, and Lulu went to the academy’s auditorium.

We asked Lulu to judge, and E9 and I intend to fight under Lulu’s judgment.

I wonder if there must be a referee, but I need Lulu’s magic to keep my opponent from getting seriously hurt in a duel. Also, her magic is needed to keep the narrow auditorium from being destroyed.

“Are you both ready?”

I can see that Lulu is also enjoying herself saying that it will be fun.

She came out with a smile on her face and waited for a response from Enain.

And E9 and I quietly nodded.

“Then prepare two players and start!”

Bread~

It wasn’t long before a voice rang out to start the game.

The match started with her magic as a signal.

And then, Ena was the first to move.

Enine challenged Dogram to a duel.

And seeing Dogram who accepted the duel, Enain strengthened her will.

‘Because now I finally have strength. I can beat Dogram.’

A person who is chosen as a hero from the lineage of a warrior is endowed with special powers.

It is awakening, a phenomenon that comes from a certain moment and becomes stronger by leaps and bounds.

I don’t know exactly what the conditions are. Until now, there have been countless heroes, but they all happen in different situations.

Some heroes are in danger of dying.

After a certain hero confessed.

A certain warrior was eating rice.

A certain hero got stronger while taking a bath…

It’s really close to difficult conditions with no set rules. For that reason, nothing has been revealed about this phenomenon. Even the warrior’s family, which has been going on for hundreds of years, doesn’t seem to know much about awakening.

I just used this phenomenon as the name ‘awakening’. However, there is only one thing in common about awakening, and if you awaken right away, there is a common point that you become stronger by leaps and bounds.

In addition to the originally good physical ability, it is because the magical power that can not be used as if sealed is released, gaining an overwhelming amount of magical power.

‘Let’s see. Dogram. I’ll tell you how terrifying the awakened warrior is.’

At some point, Ena finished her awakening, but she doesn’t know what condition caused her awakening. However, that doesn’t matter. What matters to her is the fact that she is now she has awakened. And she is just grateful for that awakening.

Awakened warriors do not lose. Because the starting point is different in the first place. So now, in this moment, she is strong. Maybe even more so than Dogram.

So she was full of thoughts of winning thoroughly. This might not be a duel, but more like one-sided violence to win.

The stage was made. The match is about to begin with Lulu smiling happily.

I will definitely win. Because I, who have awakened the power of a hero, have no opponent.

In the first place, the amount of mana itself is different. I intend to win this fight unconditionally.

‘Didn’t I say it’s the feeling… Of gathering magic into the sword?’

Concentrating, she looked at the opponent in front of her and began to focus her magic on the tip of her sword.

Quite… No, quite a lot of magical energy flowed into the sword, causing the sword to vibrate.

This is the most basic sword magic… Just swing it. Gather all of her own magic power and swing it at Dogram.

‘But can I not learn swordsmanship?’

‘Yes. Lady E9 doesn’t need to learn.’

‘Why?’

‘That’s right. ‘Cause she doesn’t have to learn.’

‘I’m not sure.’

‘Lady. Speaking of which, did you see the giant monster use swordsmanship?’

‘No.’

‘That’s because… You don’t have to learn. Because you just have to press it. The same goes for the lady. ‘

‘… I still don’t know.’

‘You don’t know now, but you’ll know when you wake up. That’s what a warrior is.’

Old memories flashed by. It was the memory of the maid who the hero told me about the door when I was a little kid in the past.

At the time, those words didn’t make much sense to me. I couldn’t imagine her holding down like a giant monster.

But now it’s starting to make sense. All of those words were true.

‘Ugh…’

A considerable amount of mana began to accumulate in the sword. And if you wield it, victory is certain. Because Dogram won’t be able to stop this.

The difference between Dogram and his own magical power is obvious. 10 Times? No, I feel a difference of more than 20 times.

Huge power that even you can’t handle…

‘Whooping…’

E9 smiled heartily.

Because I was very excited at the thought of defeating Dogram along with Awakening.

Because I can beat Dogram today!

Sereung.

It didn’t take long to swing the sword.

She just swung her sword, staring straight at her target as her body moved.

And… The results came out.

The result is defeat…

Huh?

The sword he was swinging bounced off.

The body that was rushing forward was in a state of falling.

The mind that assured victory fell into doubt.

Are you sure I should have won?

Enine couldn’t understand.

Why… Lost?

@

Hyo. Anyway, it is an obvious result.

I expected this to happen, but it’s surprising because it’s so predictable.

In the first place, this was an absurd match.

“I… Lost?”

Well, Enain, the loser, looks like a fool, but she doesn’t know why she lost.

I had no choice but to expect my victory in this fight from the beginning.

Especially in Lulu’s case, it was to the point where I could see how she was holding back her laughter as to why she was so happy.

“Winner Dogram!!!”

Lulu created something like a banner in the air with her magic. It contained letters congratulating my name and victory.

There’s no way he made it up on the spot, he must have made it up a little while watching the game before the start.

Because my victory was almost assured.

“Did you really mean to beat me?”

Honestly, I felt a tremendous amount of magical power because I had finished my awakening. Certainly, this guy is definitely a hero.

It was such a monstrous magic, and holding it was no different from a monster.

But that’s all. Just because there is a lot of magical power doesn’t mean you can win unconditionally, and E9 doesn’t have the know-how to use it all at once.

No matter how much mana he possesses, the entrance through which he passes is narrow, so it’s okay to have a lot.

And any genius can’t handle the magic he uses for the first time at once, especially if it’s an enormous magic like that of a hero.

In the end, E9 was very poor in that respect.

Again, this is the biggest problem… E9 has no practical experience. Even if Enin’s mana discharge is high in this state, he can’t defeat me.

I have been rolling in the ranks of the warrior party for many years, and E9 only watches it, but has never actually experienced combat.

Can such a person beat me just because he has good specs? The answer is, of course, absolutely impossible.

No matter how good the hardware specs are, if there is not enough software to dedicate it, it will inevitably end up like this.

There are too many gaps in a sword that just charges forward. It was so easy to avoid the sword of a beginner who did not even know swordsmanship and get an effective hit.

No matter how different the weight class is, the world in which a first-class martial artist lives is different from that of ordinary people, so is the relationship between E9 and I right now. It was a relationship that couldn’t be won from the beginning.

Duduk…

“Hey Dogram…”

Anyway, that means I won. I thought as I untied my hands. Now what?

E9 was also in the mood to admit his defeat.

Because the confident expression from before has gradually disappeared.

My victory was confirmed anyway.

From noble mtl dot com.

So, is it okay if I relax a bit?

I’m going to have to listen to what E9 is saying now.

“What. Why?”

“Maybe…Wouldn’t it be a draw? I’m making a special offer.”
